My Story

I have transferred this blog to honghong0208.wordpress.com

Pls visit. Hee.....

I am right now at pacific coffee writing this wretched post of mine.

The market is really bearish for the past 2 weeks. Today after the US cut rate by 75 basis points I start to sense a bit of light for those stocks I hold. I hope this is not short term.

At work, I can really sense the uncertainty that people is having. Both the selling and buying is as strong. Of course in the end selling wins......cos the price is pushed down towards the end.

The outlook of the economy? It is definitely bearish......with the rising costs of living in Singapore which is suppose to be back by our increasing salaries.....no longer holds.....I ballot 3 times to get a 450k flat yet I am still out bid......come on......people are now willing to pay almost a million for a hdb flat....this is madness.

So what we have an increment for our salary?! the 10 % increase is used to pay for the 30% increase in goods and services. ERP gantries everywhere to trap u. SO? better stay at home and rot.

The luncheon meat now costs my mum 2 times as compared to the past. (now worse no more China luncheon meat).

WE WILL SURVIVE!!!

ooops...

Hey one year had passed. 2007 is a significant year for me.



1. Jan - found a job and started a different lifestyle.

2. Mar - My dearest grandpa left and went on to the other world.

3. Sept- Tendered and starting a new job which should be better, me and yang stepping into the 5th year.

4. OCt- Started my new job

This is the year when everything starting to fall in. I am now on my own. pay my own bills.....eat my own meals......and buying things for my ownself. I am excited.

Now, I have already started my new job for 2 1/2 months. Everything seems still fine just need to be a bit more agressive i think.

Resolution for 2008:

1. I want to achieve an income of XXXX( secret).
2. Lose 7 kg- I am really very heavy now sob
3. I want to drink 3 bottles of beer and not vomit. haha....sound silly sia....but i mean it.....cos i am really a lousy drinker
4. Make sure Yang eat healthily and exercise regularly!!!!
5. Provide my family with sufficient gardenia bread....think sunshine also can.


Think should be as above. Pls let me know if I need to ad anything.

I shd be busy preparing for my acca paper. I am too ill prepared I think. I should be taking the paper next Tue. But ....think gonna to take it next sem le.

Wanted to upload some photos .....well I cant...guess blogspot is down again.

Anyway life is good. I have been ending work really early(4pm)....haha don't envy thats because i start work at 630 sharp. I love these hours. At the very least I dun have to be like sardine packed in the MRT right in the morning....btw the director of MRT still thinks that the MRT is underloaded. Haiz.....does she wants the MRT to be overturned before she is convinced. I doubt she takes the MRT....she should try so every 815-9am...if not she better keep her mouth shut.

We have successfully launched our bag website(http://bagsite.blogspot.com). Sales not as fantastic as we thought but at least it is starting off somewhere. Pls take a look and help spread the word. Hee.

I am happy satisfied even it is a pay cut. Not because I don't love money. Not because I hate my current company. Not because I hate my colleagues.

I worked for a branded company. When always I tell people where I am working they will WOW!!!! In the beginning I really felt flattered. My pay is slightly higher than the average. However dunno y, I dun really feel happy in the job.

Firstly, I have quite an outgoing personality.....seriously I feel thisty if I don't talk. And my job is....best that you dun talk....

Secondly, I will enter a sleeping mode if I sit there too long and doing mono stuff. guess people who really know me knew it........

Thirdly, my job is basically a demanding admin job......work till at least 8pm everyday

The list just goes on and on............

My going to be job is:

1. Non branded- It's unlikely you will know of this co
2. low pay for the starting- I seriously got a pay cut of 25%
3. stressful and fast paced- I like it. dun want to fall asleep unknowingly

However I know I had made the right choice. At this point in life, personal development is much more impt than a short term comfort. Any way this job is going to bring me loads more of income that I have not earned...........I believe so.

From now on, I do not need to flip through Saturday's Recruit again. I wont complain that whoever up there is unfair. I do not need to think about which department to go to after one and a half years. Do not need to think thrice before talking to my boss who think he is really capable....Do not need to tolerate the "goldenlism win" culture in my current co......Do not need to try creating conversation when my unfriendly boss is in the same lift as me......

This is all because I have found a job I really want.
